    Software Updates should add more gestures in the future. Hopefully customisable ones too... -fingers crossed-

    I rest my fingers on my mouse. I think everyone does. Also, I move my fingers and reposition them on the mouse. With the new mouse, besides looking super uncomfortable, every time I replace my fingers on the mouse, it'll think I'm clicking. Fail.

    In fact, there is not one thing about that mouse that I like. God awful.

    What he said.

    Also, with this update:
    No more iMac refurbs (for now)
    Still no Mini refurbs


    Bring back the mighty mouse. Screw "magic" mouse.

    There already is "buttons". There was on Mighty Mouse, too.

    They are just "invisible". The Magic Mouses "buttons" are more annoying though (I think)

    No I really meant i7; though the upgrade i5 ==> i7.
    ------------------double post merged------------------
    And for the Magic Mouse, does anybody know if it's tapping or clicking?
    Cause I do want to hold a mouse in my hand, instead of touching it only when needed.
    Has anybody here even tried it yet? Probably way too early to ask.

    You know, I got the low-end 24" Early-2009 iMac.
    It's the first Mac in our family, and my dad (who does desktop publishing for a living) was pretty eager about it. I was the one that came up with "I wanna have a Mac for my next computer." I told him about Macs being very graphics-oriented, so he was willing to give it a go ("sometime").
    Now he's really interested, and at the end of this year, probably between November 7th and December 31st, we will go out, buy me a brand new iMac from my money (I can spend it from November 7th; I couldn't before because of a huge interest rate I would get if I put it aside), probably the highend iMac 27" + i7 upgrade + 4x2GB RAM upgrade. Then he gets this one, and in December's last week we'll spray his desk Matte Black "to look great with his iMac."
    It's great, isn't it. Now don't call me spoilt or something, I pay for the new machine myself, from my own money that I've collected, put aside, worked for in the summer holidays, that stuff.

    Damn it! I just bought a MacBook two months ago!

    I wonder if I can get 800 or so on craigslist for it...

    The iMacs.....great! White macbook design change is nice, I don't hate it, but expected a little bit more.
